Allister is a pop punk band from Chicago, Illinois. The four-piece formed in 1996 and were one of the first bands to sign to Drive-Thru Records. They are known for their exemplary pop punk music and their fun-loving, Budweiser-consuming natures. Besides releasing three studio albums - 1999's Dead Ends and Girlfriends, 2002's Last Stop Suburbia, and 2005's Before the Blackout - Allister made a cameo appearance in the 2004 film Sleepover.

Allister was formed in Chicago, Illinois under their original name Phineas Gage by high school classmates John Hamada (vocals/guitar) and Tim Rogner (vocals/drums) with Eric "Skippy" Mueller (bass) in 1996.
